While much of Cardinal Newman's work is widely known and appreciated, there has nevertheless been a consistent distortion of his thought by many who claim his patronage for contemporary forms of medernism. But it was precisely this kind of relativism and the dissent it engenders that Newman found fundamentally untenable.

Under the auspices of the Wetherfield Institute, a selected group o international Newman scholars was convened to clarify the genuine teaching of Cardinal Newman and show its peculiar relevance to the problems of the Catholic Church today. Each presented a paper on Newman. Among the contributors are Stanley Jaki, John T. Ford, George Rutler, Louis Bouyer and Marvin R. O'Connell.
